Prosthodontics

Written Examinations

Written examinations, patterned after the American Board of Prosthodontics Section A exam are given two times a year. They are primarily designed to allow the resident to identify weak areas in recall and understanding of the material. As an outcome assessment measure, they also give the teaching staff important information on resident comprehension and allow for reinforcement in these selected areas. Third year residents, who successfully pass Section A of the American Board of Prosthodontics Certification Examination are exempt from this requirement.
